Elon Musk is debating bringing another big change to X, formerly Twitter: Charging all users a monthly fee.

In an interview Monday with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, Musk, the owner of X, said he was considering charging “a small monthly payment” to all users in what he said was an effort to “combat vast armies of bots” proliferating the website.

Musk said X will come out with a “lower-tier pricing” than the existing cost for current X premium subscribers. He did not specify what the pricing could be.
